Hough, William J. H. (William Jarrett Hallowell), 1888-1969.

William J.H. Hough was trained in architecture at the University of Pennsylvania (B.S. 1911, M.S. 1913), where he studied under Paul Philippe Cret. In 1911 he won the Stewardson Travelling Scholarship, and in 1914 he won the Rome Prize, which permitted him to study at the American Academy in Rome from 1914-1917. In 1917, he worked with the American Red Cross in Italy; he received the Bronze Medal of Merit from the Italian Red Cross in 1919. Hough worked for the architectural firms of Cope & Stewardson (1908-1909), Frank Miles Day (1912) and John T. Windrim (1913-1914). In 1919 he joined the firm of Paul P. Cret. He became a partner in Cret's firm in 1923; and when Cret died in 1945, he and John Harbeson, William Livingston and Roy Larson continued the firm as Harbeson, Hough, Livingston and Larson.
